BALINESE CULTURE.

Connect to the culture through celebration and traditional offerings.

The rich culture of Bali is famous throughout the world. A major influence on the arts of the island comes from Hinduism. Feast your senses on the myriad of colour and diversity during temple festivities. Music, dance and drama performances offer wonderful entertainment and scenes for both locals and travellers.

Balinese families mark the cycle of life through colourful celebrations. Guests can join a spiritual offering class at the resort, learning how to prepare a traditional offering for ceremonies.

MOMENTS OF CELEBRATION

Day of Silence
Once a year – date depending on Balinese Calendar.

Nyepi is also celebrated as New Year’s Day and is honoured as a time for reflection, meditation and fasting where Balinese cannot create any noise, light fires, travel or entertain. While the rest of the island shuts down every year, Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort prepares series of activities and offers for you to experience tranquillity and to relax.

Discover the heart of Balinese spirituality by learning how to create a traditional offering for ceremonies and rituals – a practice which has been handed down through the generations for centuries and is steeped in cultural meaning.
